Hitting Back at the Mirror's Lies about 'starvation ' in People's Korea

 Hitting Back at the Mirror's Lies about 'starvation ' in People's Korea

The Daily Mirror citing a Reuters report on Wednesday carried an alarmist anti -DPRK headline ‘North Koreans 'starving' due to tough Covid measures in country 'with zero cases' . It is basically as third hand report as Reuters themselves cited a “UN Investigator ‘ .

The monopoly owned ‘Mirror ‘ has tended to sometimes take the lead in tabloid DPRK bashing . Years ago ties between the ‘Daily Mirror ‘ and the British intelligence service , the SIS or MI6 were exposed .The Mirror was also owned for a long time by Robert Maxwell ( the man who stole the pensions of Daily Mirror staff), a MI6 and Mossad asset.The "Mirror " ran a false story about former Miners leader Arthur Scargill.

The plain fact is that the so-called ‘ UN investigator ‘ has not set foot in the DPRK so how can he judge the situation in the DPRK ? . No doubt his so-called ‘information ‘ comes from the CIA , the south Korean puppets and dodgy criminal ‘defectors ‘.

The UN has long been exposed as a marionette of US imperialism . The so-called ‘human rights ‘ investigation into the DPRK by the UN has a not a so well hidden anti DPRK , anti-socialist and anti-Juche agenda .It aims at the overthrow of People’s Korea and the socialist system of Juche.

A number of countries as well as the DPRK have taken stringent measures against Covid 19 so why isn’t the ‘Mirror ‘ claiming that they face ‘starvation’.

The DPRK does not live on imported food , most of the food is produced at home and the DPRK was even exporting seafood until they were banned from doing so under the UN sanctions . It is the miracle of Juche and self-reliance that the DPRK has been able to close its borders for a year and yet survive when some countries would not be able to last a few days  if they closed their borders.

As a matter of fact the farming season in the DPRK will not start until 1 or 2 months . Crops have not been sowed  yet  let alone actual rice transplanting and harvesting . The harvest is not due until the autumn so how on earth can the UN predict  crop failures and mass starvation ?.

In his report to the 8th Congress of the Workers Party of Korea held in January respected Marshal KIM JONG UN reported that 

“The agricultural field waged an intensive drive for scientific farming and high yield despite persistent and severe drought, flooding and all kinds of shortages, and thus brought about an unprecedented increase in grain production”

So there has actually been a big increase in grain production, not a decrease  !

Recent pictures of the DPRK show mass rallies and meetings being held and no sign of starving people .

Of course ‘starvation stories ‘ about the DPRK from the mainstream media are not new and have been constantly recycled . Back in the 1990s it was claimed by the mainstream media that the DPRK suffered a ‘famine ‘ and ‘ mass starvation ‘ , however during that period the population continued to increase . A visiting delegation of the British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea in 1996 saw no sign of starvation in the DPRK at the time.

If you believe the ‘Mirror’ and the rest of the mainstream media  by now there would be no one alive in the DPRK because they would have all starved to death not once but several times !
